| Are you using the TomTom supplied database or the offering from this web site as there is a vast difference - Mike |

| Then best of luck with it as it only contains a few mobile locations at best, if you want decent coverage for fixed, average and mobile camera locations consider the offering from this site as its considerably better in terms of accuracy, updates and the ability to earn a free life time membership negating any further subscription charges - Mike |

I guess that's the problem.
The download from this site is deadly accurate, with spoken warnings possible, and excellent value at £19.99 pa.
If you have the cash left after Christmas then I would strongly suggest you come here.
Ooops - Mike beat me to it! |

| Actually, it is my first time to hear, read and know that mobile camera alert. Thank you for that information. It looks like that is a security camera. |

Trixie. Do you mean that there is a camera in PGPSW database that you think is a security camera? There is a few pictures of valid camera types (and also the types that we do NOT want) on the submission page, got to by clicking the 'WE NEED YOU' link on the top left of this page then scrolling down.
If this is the case, please report the error on the same page. |

Actually, no mention was made of an actual location in any previous posts, and the language used is rather strange, so I suspect "trixie09" may not be what she seems.
 ????
Care to comment Trixie? |

Do you mods get to see IP addresses of posters, Andy?
